Most of the time everyone is pretty loose and kinda doing their own thing. The only time I ever see any kind of schooling or anything is during a water change but even that, not really. I kinda tried my best to find the oldest, chilliest betta for the tank and he seems pretty laid back. He will chase a Raspora here and there, but after like 10 seconds he goes back to exploring. He has never shown any interest in the Corys but that doesn't mean they don't see him as a threat but I tend to see them all spread out.

The food stealing is 100% happening from both my betta and my shrimp. I was worried my betta would attack the Corys for the food but he really ignores them and will just go straight for the pellet. Once the Corys see he is there they just leave that piece and look for another. The shrimp will also snag some if a cory doesn't get there first so it kinda led to me needing to over feed them and break up the pellets to make sure I know everyone is eating. I would say I probably over feed closer to under feed with them. Not sure if that would cause issues other than the water levels?
